}}'''"The Way Out Is Through"''' is the first track on the Right disc of ''[[The Fragile (halo)|The Fragile]].'' It is one of the more abstract and non-traditional songs on the album, with its structure based around a drawn-out crescendo. It was featured in a teaser trailer for the album, with [[Trent Reznor]] singing part of the chorus ''a cappella.'' It is often confused with "[[Underneath It All]] " due to the bold verse line.
In an interview published in VIVA 2 Magazine, Reznor revealed the source of its title: "The way that I couldn't cope with [the death of his grandmother] was by not addressing it or having the courage to write anything. And it took that realization to turn it around and by writing about it and expressing, I felt better about it, I felt like I could see through it. The way out is through. That's where the song title came from because I thought that the way out was skirting the issue and walking on the curb."
